Do you have the converted repo somewhere to be cloned for? It's going to
be a lot more interesting for scalability testing than anything else.

I don't have access to any servers that I could drop a 3GB packfile
onto and expect them to serve it. And I don't have a connection at
home that I could use to upload the 3GB pack from quickly - it would
take days, at least. If anybody wants to hook me up with a hosting
provider or a machine that just the git devs can access, I'd be
willing to tie up my upstream bandwidth for a few days so you all can
have access to it.

if nobody else steps forward I can arrange something like this on my home
server (only 768K updtream bandwidth, but it's better then nothing)

Hey guys,

We might be a couple people interested in this pack (I do as pack 
performance is one of my main interest in git).  Linus is interested, 
and I'd guess Junio too, maybe a few others.

Chris: why don't you just set up a Bittorrent feed for it?  When we'll 
all start fetching it then the bandwidth will increasingly be shared 
amongst all interested people.
